Tatlo by William Newton
“Through my undergraduate studies, I became well acquainted with the music of John Psathas and Alejandro Viñao. These two spectacular composers quickly became important voices for the percussion community. After having the opportunity to hear them speak of their creative processes I decided to implement their strategies into a project for my composition class.
For Tatlo the main strategy was to start with a very small cell develop that into a large-scale piece. This idea is the the quick three note motive presented in the first bar of the piece. The number three also became the source of the title, which translates to three in tagalog, my mother’s native language.” — William Newton
